In a very seperate stream of their own, often segregated from the age of five or six , are the childrer at the independent or " public" schools, which for the past three decades have been the cause of more controversy than any other British institution.
Most public schools were founded in Victorian times, partly to provide recruits for the empire and the army. Most of the boarding schools were sit up in the railway age, far from the main centres of population , so that the boys spent eight months a year for five years in the exclusive company of other boys. The introverted society thus created , provided an experience from which many public schools boys never recovered , and the boarding system has been blamed for most of their subseguent failings - their veneration for authority, their obsession with tradition, their frustrated sex lives. It is changing. Nowadays mothers are reluctant to part with their children so early and the numbers of boarding preparatory schools have decreased and many of them now take day pupils only. All age groups , particularly girls , are moving away from boarding education.
The public schools are nowadays less obviously different from the top grammar schools in their tasks and value- system; they are less obsessed by team-spirit and character building , and more concerned with examinations and universities. But they still give their pupils a very special sense or their mossion and confidence.
The public schools have certainly , in the last decade, become much less isolated. Some are even going co-educational: they allow girls into the sixth form. Most schools have abolished fagging and flogging of younger boys by older ones. The most assured schools are not now fussy over long hair, wild clothes or voices- many public schoolboys now deliberately react against the " public eccent" which used to be one of their chief weapons in the outside world. The public schools have become less philistine and less classical. Art is no longer regarded as pansy and many schools have set up expensive art centres, greatly expanded their science sides- helped by special investment funds from big companies. Business has become respectable and some boys play the chartered accountants business games with computers against other schools .
